Dismissed and Opinion Filed June 25, 2018

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-18-00636-CR No. 05-18-00637-CR CHRISTOPHER L. JONES, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 363rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. F95-00288-W & F95-00289-W

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Lang, Myers, and Stoddart Opinion by Justice Lang On May 31, 2018, Christopher L. Jones filed notices of appeal for the above two cases. In his notices, appellant states he was convicted on or about April 28, 1995. To challenge his convictions, appellant had to file his notices of appeal with the trial court clerk within thirty days of the date sentence was imposed, that is, by May 30, 1995. See TEX. R. APP. P. 4.1, 26.2(a)(1). Appellant’s notices of appeal were untimely, leaving us without jurisdiction over the appeals. See Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208, 210 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998) (per curiam). We dismiss these appeals for want of jurisdiction.
